What is the solution to the compound inequality in interval notation?

Mathematics
1 answer:
ollegr [7]1 year ago
4 0

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Because of the word "or", this is a disjunction, or a union of all the solutions to the inequality as they present on a number line.

For the first inequality:

4(x + 1) > -4 we distribute through the parenthesis to get

4x + 4 > -4 and subtract 4 from both sides to get

4x > -8 and then divide both sides by 4 to get

x > -2.  That will be graphed on a number line with an open hole over the -2 and the arrow will go to the right where the numbers are bigger than -2. This arrow continues into positive infinity.

For the other inequality:

2x - 4 ≤ -10 we add 4 to both sides to get

2x ≤ -6 and then divide by 2 to get

x ≤ -3. That is a closed hole over -3 and the arrow goes to negative infinity (to the left). Since one arrow goes off to the right forever, and the other arrow goes off to the left forever, and the arrows do not intersect at any point, the interval notation answer is

(-∞, -3] or (-2, ∞).  The parenthesis mean that the number following it is not included (you can't include infinity, either negative or positive, because it's not actually a number) and the brackets mean that the number following it IS included. The hole is closed over the -3 so -3 is included in the solution, where the hole over the -2 is open and is not included.

Contestant and like terms. What do they mean?
ICE Princess25 [194]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Like Terms: terms that have the same variable raised to the same power. So like 5x plus 5x plus 5. 5x and 5x are like terms.

I'm going to assume you mean Constant instead of contestant so

Constant: Terms without variables

Example: 5x+2x+7

5x and 2x are like terms

7 is a Constant

Use the graph to answer the question. Find the slope
Liula [17]
We can take the two points given and plug them into the slope formula.

\sf~m=\dfrac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}

(-3, 3), (1, -5)
x1  y1  x2 y2

\sf~m=\dfrac{-5-3}{1-(-3)}

Subtract:

\sf~m=\dfrac{-8}{4}

Divide:

\sf~m=-2

The Department of Commerce in a particular state has determined that the number of small businesses that declare bankruptcy per
skad [1K]

Answer:

B) 0.1487

Step-by-step explanation:

Let X be the discrete random variable that represents the number of events observed over a given time period.  If X follows a Poisson distribution, then the probability of observing k events over the time period is:

P(X=k)=\frac{\lambda^{k} *e^{-\lambda} }{k!}

Where:

\lambda=Mean\\k=number\hspace{3}of\hspace{3}events\\e=Euler's\hspace{3}number

So, the probability that exactly 5 bankruptcies occur next month is:

P(X=5)=\frac{6.4^{5} *e^{-6.4} }{5!} =\frac{17.84083537}{120} =0.1486736281\approx0.1487

R(x)=2√x s(x)=√x (r/s)(3)
anygoal [31]
This is a trick question. First just understand that any number over itself is 1 so \frac{2 \sqrt{x} }{\sqrt{x}} is just 2 *  \frac{ \sqrt{x} }{ \sqrt{x}} = 2 so it is just 2
